DISAGREEMENT
Excuse me while I rage and rant,
And try to tell you of my slant,
And of the circles, if you'll grant
The time it takes to draw them out
Or name them as they run about
Sometimes they whisper, times they shout
Of homes like hives,
With small divides,
And greener than yours, so keep your side
And mine is better, faster, grander -
Disagreement gets the dander,
Think alike, or face a slander
Times in circles, fashion too,
Both to place restraints on you
And me, though disregard a few
And hope no one will notice, care -
Going where?
Not too far, lest they stop and stare
And wonder why you haven't heard,
Yellow's out, it's quite absurd,
Why, you look like that famous bird,
Who's taught us what is wrong and right,
And there's nothing we should fear at night
(He scares me, even in the light)
I don't know why the T.V. lies
They know the truth and then disguise
'It's what they want' - their alibis
And give your money to the needy,
And keep it coming, they're getting greedy,
Then we're all switching sides so speedy
That sometimes, when I stop for air,
I look around and wonder where
I am - what side? or should I care?
And circles just keep spinning 'round,
So now, before I lose my ground,
I'll stop, and bring my hemlines down
